Duke: ... 22.
Tristan: Heya buddy, where have you been?
Duke: Out... In the back of the school..
Yugi: Why?
Duke: .... No reason..
Tristan: Hey Duke, I'm sorry about what I said yesterday.. I didn't mean to hurt your feelings like that. I shouldn't have pried.. Your sexuality is none of my business! If you wanna punch me, go ahead! I won't mind.
Duke: Alright. -punches Tristan so hard, he flies right into Bandit Keith-
Bandit Keith: OW!
Tristan: Ow... I didn't know he hit so hard!
Raphael: Are you both alright? -helps them up-
Bandit Keith: Ah.. I'm fine. -rubs the back of his head-
Tristan: Peachy. -dusts himself off-
Dartz: Wow Duke, you've been holding out in P.E
Duke: Uh.. Uh.. Happy Birthday Dartz! ^-^
Dartz: Thank you.
Yugi: -searches around in his bag- I got something for you, just lemme fish it out. Here it is! -pulls out a plastic bowl with water in it and an angel fish and hands it to Dartz-
Dartz: Wai! It's a fish! Kawaii! I'll name it... Snuffles!
Valon: o_o You brought a fish in your bag to school?
Yugi: Yup! ^.^
Valon: n.n
Bandit Keith: -to Raphael- Do they need to do that EVERY time Yugi does something cute?
Raphael: -_-; Probably..
Joey: We better get to class, if I fail any more, I'll be held back next year! -everyone but Raphael, Dartz, Bandit Keith, and Snuffles run off to class-
<><><><><><><>
Teacher: If such and such go into such and such, such and such will happen!
Seto: Ugh.. What a snore!
Allister: Better then nothing, right?
Seto: Sometimes..
Rex: Ugh.. I hurt!
Seto: What happened this time?
Rex: I dunno, some weird person dressed in a belly shirt came out of nowhere and hit me with his dueldisk. I didn't get a look at his face because he had a helmet on.. It hurrrrrrrts! Allister, will you kiss my booboos?
Allister: ... -listens intently to the teacher-
Seto: -gives Rex a glare-
Rex: What?
Valon: -a few seats away from Allister, Seto, and Rex- Hey Yugi, how long do you think before Rex and Seto get into a fight?
Yugi: Huh? -looks back at Seto, who is glaring at Rex menacingly- Oh, wow. I've never seen Seto look at anybody like that!
Valon: >u< It's all for Allister.
Yugi: Really?
Valon: Really!
Yugi: Aww, that is so sweet! I wish someone would do that for me!
Rebecca: -runs into the classroom- Yuuuuuuuuuuuuugi! Where's my boyfriend?!
Yugi: Huh?
Rebecca: It's my Yugi! -runs up to Yugi's desk and hugs him- Hi Yugi!
Yugi: Who are you?
Rebecca: Don't you remember me? You gave me this! -holds out the bond of friendship card-
Valon: -_- Did Te'a think of that card or something?
Yugi: Oh, Rebecca! It's you!
Rebecca: Yup! And you're my boyfriend!
Valon & Yugi: WHAT?!
Teacher: -has suddenly fallen asleep-
Seto: Well I can't blame the teacher, his lesson was getting boring!
Rebecca: Yup Yugi, I decided you're my boyfriend! You gave me this card, and I haven't been able to forget about you since then!
Yugi: O..Okay..
Valon: >.< Yugi! This kid is like eight!!
Rebecca: I'm not a kid! I'm in college!
Valon: Then find a frat boy and make HIM your boyfriend!
<><><><><><><>
(In Cafeteria)
Valon: -sits down at table with a grilled cheese sandwich- Hey guys.
Duke: Yo!
Tristan: Hey!
Joey: `Sup?
Valon: What do you guys know about this Rebecca kid?
Joey: She's an annoying brat..
Tristan: She comes from America.
Duke: I don't know, I didn't show up until after Yugi's duel with her..
Joey: Why do you ask?
Valon: She says that Yugi is her boyfriend, and if that's so, I don't want her to do anything to him.
Joey: Yugi can take care of himself.
Valon: I know, but he can also be very naive. And he can't stand the thought of letting anyone down...
Joey: You really look out for him, don't ya?
Valon: Of course, that's what friends do for each other.
Yugi: -walks into the cafeteria, Rebecca is holding his hand and following him, Yugi sits down at the table- Hey guys.
Rebecca: -sits next to Yugi- Hey everyone!
Valon: ^_^ Hi Yugi! -looks at Rebecca- .... Hello Rebecca..
Dartz: You guys don't mind if I sit here, do you?
Duke: No, not at all! Come, sit!
Dartz: Thanks. -sits next to Duke-
Duke: -trying to hide the fact he is turning all red-
Dartz: Duke, you alright?
Duke: OH! I'm great! -drinks a whole bunch of water-
Dartz: ^^;;;
Rebecca: So Yugi, after school, you wanna take a walk in the park?
Yugi: Uh.. Sure.
Valon: -takes a bite out of his sandwich- ... Which park?
Rebecca: The Domino Historical Park!
Valon: I see, I see...
Allister: -walks into Cafeteria, Seto is next to him- Seto, you didn't need to be so mean to him!
Seto: I hate it when people are being babies about things! Ooh, so he got hit! BIG DEAL!
Allister: Yeah..
Seto: Although I do have to say... You do good handiwork.
Allister: -blushes- Uhm.. Thank you.
Seto: -smiles- Yup. Hey... Do you wanna sit with me at lunch?
Allister: What, really?
Seto: Yeah, don't get used to it though. It's only a one-time thing.
Allister: Okay!
<><><><><><><>
Dartz: -walks into the classroom slightly angered-
Students: O.O What the...?
Dartz: WHAT ARE YOU ALL STARING AT?!
Yugi: Um.. Why are you wearing a dress?
(If you've ever read volume 2 of Fruits Basket, think of that dress that Yuki was wearing.)
Dartz: Some of the girls wanted me to wear it before they graduated.. Now let's get on with the studies! Today we will be learning about The History of Atlantis!
Yugi: O.O; Atlantis?
Dartz: Yes. Now, Atlantis existed some time ago, about 10,000 years ago. It was a city entirely surrounded by water.
(About an hour later)
Dartz: And that students, concludes our lesson! Now get out... Please..
Students: -run out of the classroom-
Dartz: Gah! I hate this thing! -starts to take off dress-
Duke: Hey uh.. Dartz? AHH! What are you doing?!
Dartz: Huh? -turns around to look at Duke- What is it?
Duke: o.o;;; Why are you taking that off?! You don't have anything under there, do you?
Dartz: I'm wearing pants under it! This stupid dress is pissing me off! It was cute for the first fifteen minutes, now it's just ridiculous!
Duke: I'll help you with it..
Dartz: Thanks. I appreciate it.
Duke: But you know, you looked good in it.
Dartz: ...
Duke: -O.O- Uh.. But you're right! You shouldn't have to wear it! -unties a ribbon from the back-
Dartz: Um.. Well I think that's all there is of it. -takes off the dress-
Duke: -turning REALLY red- Uh.. Uh.. Uh..
Dartz: I think I'll have to find my shirt, although just these jeans are comfortable enough.
Duke: Uh.. Yeah, it is.
Dartz: Duke, are you sick? You don't look so well. -puts his hand on Duke's forehead- Hmm.. Your temperature seems fine.
Duke: Um. -hands Dartz his over jacket- How about you wear this until you get a chance to look for you're shirt? -runs out of class-
Dartz: o.o; ... Is he alright? Oh well, I don't have time for such foolish matters.. -puts on the jacket and sits at his teacher's desk-
<><><><><><><>
Bandit Keith: -in Raphael's classroom- Hey Raphael, what do you think I should make out of origami for Dartz?
Raphael: I don't know, you have a good imagination, think of something.
Bandit Keith: Hmm.. Maybe an angel.. No wait, I'm saving that for something else.. Hmm... OOH! I know!
Raphael: -starts writing some things on the chalkboard- What are you mumbling about?
Bandit Keith: Oh nothing! Can I have some paper? -walks to Raphael's desk and starts opening drawers-
Raphael: HEY! -grabs Bandit Keith's arm- What are you doing?!
Bandit Keith: I need paper for origami!
Raphael: Geez, do you not have the patience for me to get some for you? -opens a drawer and hands Bandit Keith some paper- There, happy?
Bandit Keith: Ecstatic! -sits at a desk he has now claimed his own-
Students: -Walk into the classroom-
Raphael: Hello students! I hope you all are looking forward to tomorrow's math test which is 1/3 of your chances of getting into a good college!
Seto: O.O;;; WHAT TEST?!
Raphael: The test that I told everyone about a couple days ago, you didn't come to class that day, therefore you never learned about the test.
Bandit Keith: Geez Seto, I don't go to school here and even I knew there was a test!
Seto: Shut it you blonde American!
Bandit Keith: ;_; America...
Raphael: Don't cry Keith!
Yugi: Test..
Rebecca: I know what test he is talking about, I took it. It was extremely easy.
Valon: -twitch- Shut it, Kid! Not all of us are geniuses like you, okay?!
Raphael: If this turns into a fight, I'll have both of you kicked out of here.
Valon: Tell that to her. -points to Rebecca-
Raphael: Oh dear..
<><><><><><><>
Rebecca: Yugi, thank you so much for taking me to the park!
Yugi: Uh.. Your welcome..
Rebecca: That Australian guy in your class.. Is he...
Yugi: Is he what? Really Australian?
Rebecca: No.. Is he... Nice? Because he doesn't seem to like me.
Yugi: He's the best! He is so fun to hang out with! I've never had such a great a friend as him! Well, maybe Joey. But still!
Rebecca: He seems like he could be psychotic.
Yugi: Valon? Never! I trust him with every ounce of my being!
(Little does he know...)
Dartz: Wow Raphael, this cake looks wonderful!
Raphael: Thanks.
Allister: Um.. Where did you get that jacket, Dartz?
Dartz: Duke lent it to me. I tried looking for him so I could give it back, but I couldn't find him.
Bandit Keith: He seems love-struck.
Dartz: Hmm? Love-struck?
Bandit Keith: You haven't noticed? Dude, he stares at you all the time, he freaks out when people say something that could be opposing to you, he blushes whenever your near him...
Dartz: Coincidence my child.
Bandit Keith: Your child?
Raphael: -whispers to Bandit Keith- Just go along with it.
Bandit Keith: Okay.
Valon: -staring at the clock-
Dartz: Valon, if you want to go make sure Yugi's okay, go.
Valon: Really?
Dartz: Yes. But remember what we talked about awhile ago. Don't get too attached to him, when the time is right, we take the pharaoh's soul.
Valon: But Yugi would still remain, right?
Dartz: ....
Valon: AH! I gotta go! -runs out of the headquarters thing-
Dartz: If only he knew..
<><><><><><><>
Rebecca: Hey Yugi, my Grandfather is going to California to look at an ancient art exhibit, and he wants me to go... He said it would be alright.. So... You wanna come with me? It would make me so happy!
Yugi: Ah... Um..
Yugi's thoughts: I can't say no, her face lit up just mentioning it.. But... It would mean I wouldn't be here in Domino for awhile.. I can't say no...
Yugi: Al-
Valon: YUGI! -running to park, nearly runs into Yugi-
Rebecca: Hello.
Valon: -glares at Rebecca- You are not taking Yugi anywhere! He's staying right here, in Domino!
Rebecca: Excuse me, but it is Yugi's decision.
Valon: I heard you awhile ago! You said it would make you happy! You know Yugi could never let anyone down! You know he would easily go just so you wouldn't cry! That's not fair to Yugi! So.. GET LOST! DON'T EVER SHOW YOUR FACE TO YUGI AGAIN, GOT THAT?!
Rebecca: Eeep! -runs off-
Yugi: ... Thanks Valon.
Valon: Yugi, I'm uh.. Sorry.
Yugi: For what?
Valon: Scaring her off. But she does know that you can't let anyone down. I won't let her treat my friend like that!
Yugi: No, it's alright.. I don't mind, you were looking out for me.. ^_^ It is completely okay!
Valon: Good. Say, you wanna go get a burger? My treat!
Awww, how heart-warming.. Right? Poor Yugi, he doesn't like letting his friends down. That's something he should learn to work on. Anyway, I'm looking forward to writing the next chapter and hearing what you guys think about this chapter! So, until next update, see ya!
